Since mathematics is both a cultural and a technical field of study, the curriculum is planned with the following objective:

  • to introduce students to mathematics as an important area of human thought;
  • to prepare students for careers in a wide array of industries and academia;
  • to give preparation to students for graduate study in mathematics and related fields;
  • to prepare students planning to teach mathematics at the secondary level;
  • to serve the needs of students in fields which rely on mathematics, e.g., experimental sciences, social sciences and education.
